In a poll from 2012 48% of Americans believed legally armed citizens could deter violent crime. In November of 2014 57% of Americans now believed the same.I challenge everyone.....Ask a criminal which they fear the most: A cop or an armed citizen.

This is perfect.

I met an ex-con who broke and entered when he was 22 (he is now in his mid-60s), and he said that, when he was breaking and entering back in the day and he saw houses that had pro-gun stickers, he wouldn't even go near them.

Imagine going up to a house and seeing a NRA sticker on the guy's pick-up truck bumper. Those are the houses criminals avoid because citizens aren't hampered by rules of engagement. Someone breaks into my house, he gonna get shot!
